XNiteUSB2S-MUV: USB 2.0 Megapixel HD Monochrome Camera UV-Only

With stock lens, camera can see from about 365nm to 380nm. We can install a quartz lens to allow the camera to see to about 300nm, but the lens is expensive.

The UV Shortpass filter is mounted on the outside of the lens. If you remove the lens to install a different lens, you will need to add a UV shortpass filter to that lens.

Suitable for seeing things like whether sunscreen is applid, sun damaged skin and other UV imaging applications. For outdoor use, sunlight will be sufficient. For indoor use, you will need a UV light source such as one of our UV floodlights 380nm or lower.

Using a UV light source over 380nm will not work well if at all because the XNite330C and XNiteBP1 filter pass light from 300nm to 380nm. Note that with the stock lens, the camera can see to about 365nm.

Note #1: You can use this in sunlight where the sun will provide the UV illumination. Inside, you will need a UV light source such as our UV illuminators. You cannot use a UV light source over 380nm because the XNite330 + XNiteBP1 filter block light above 380nm. Please be aware that most UV LED lights advertise a frequency about 15nm lower than reatlity. Shorter wavelength LED's are more expensive and almost all Chinese UV LED's are mis-rated.

Note #2: The camera does not come with software. When you plug the camera into a PC or Mac, the computer will automatically recognize the camera as a video deivce similar to a webcam. Any software that can display video from a webcam, should also be able to display video from the camera such as iMovie, Final Cut Pro, Windows Movie Maker, Windows Story Remix, Microsoft Photos, Skype, etc. Connecting to an Android phone is usually possible though you may need an OTG adapter cable depending on your phone model. For phones, we have used the free software CameraFi2.
